Extension for Oher?

“I want to be here," Oher said with a huge smile. “Love the organization. It’s such a great organization. You wish you could be a part of this type stuff your whole career."

Rivera is expecting even better things out of Oher this season.

“Oh, he’s so much more comfortable in what we’re doing and how we do it," he said. “He’s fit in very nicely with that group of guys. Players feed off of his energy and excitement."

The best evidence of how comfortable Rivera is with Oher is Carolina didn’t make any moves in the draft or free agency.

“It’s exciting to have him out here and watch him mix it up with the guys," Rivera said. “He’s been a big part of what we’ve done since he’s been here and he continues to be a big part for us."

Few have a better work ethic than Oher, usually one of the first players at the facility. He’s bought into Rivera’s post-Super Bowl speech that the best way to get back to the title game is to return to the little things that got you there the first time.

"Don't be blindsided"

will it ever end???

It would be nice to get a few more years out of him, though I'd love to see his run blocking get better.  Especially after he rode that dude to the other end of the field in the movie.. ;P

Yeah but can he doesn't know how to tip.

[Khyber53]

Until he signs that extension contract, $3 tip is the maximum he will drop. C'mon Gettleman, make it happen before some actor/model working the breakfast buffet has to give up his weekly tanning bed appointment!

9/10 post op because lack of pretty pick words. ;-)

Sounds like they'd like to keep him for a few more years.. but they know you need to identify and keep the core. Not sure Oher is core when KK Star and Turner are up for paydays

"Here, Getty, hold this cuppa Henny while I sign this thang"

Meet me over at IHOP- I'm buyin out da bah

[pantherclaw]

No rush to get it done. 

I'm positive he'll sign a new contract extension. 

[Eazy-E]

Slide a cup of Hennesey next to the pen and paper and he's guaranteed to sign what ever Gman offers.

[Khaki Lackey]

Yeah, of course he's the first to show up to the facilities. He's been up all night drinking cognac for christ's sake.

At 30 years old, he is wise to sign whatever is offered to him.

[TylerDurden]

But, will he start everyday with a cup of Hennessy?

This plus after whatever happened at Tenn makes any Panther offer look good.
